Nope, I always wanted his sig model though. Unluckily they only ever sent like, four to Australia.

It's a partscaster I made from an old Nashville model. I put Jamie from The Creamery's fantastic wide range reproduction (original spec) in the neck and his Noscaster bride pickup in there.

I love the humbucker neck/single coil bridge Tele configuration, it's my jam.

How do you find the Bone Collector? I've always been quite interested in one of those.

How are you liking the Chinese Tokai now? You said there was some pretty heavy neck dive, did that get sorted with the bigsby?

All these SGs are getting me all hot and bothered.

While the Bigsby does help (not having to use as much of my wrist to keep the neck up) it does still dive. Nothing a few fishing sinkers taped to the inside of the cavity can't fix though.
I'm just waiting on some treble bleed kits that I plan on putting on a few of my guitars, I was going to do a second playthrough video when I have them installed in the volume pots of the SG. I think I'll be about done modding it then.

I played a gig with it on last Friday night and it sounded fucking fantastic.

i havent wanted an sg since like middle school, but no i really want one. fuck you guys.

Keeping it small today.

I did a bit of noisy droning today, my vm jag into an mxr 6 band eq, behringer heavy metal, ibanez echo, hardwire spring reverb, and danelectro tremolo, I just turned effects on and off throughout. Here's a quick recording of what that's like http://www.soundcloud.com/tremglider/closer-demo

This thread will never die!

First rehearsal since our last decent gig, back on a Pedaltrain, got it neater than I ever have before.

Love them Princetons!

A friend of ours lent us his vintage '65 for NAMM this past year, and the thing was amazing. Everything sounded good through it, and it broke up at a decent volume to boot.

Kinda comfy with my basic setup in our 4th floor screening room.

Got the humidifier (that teardrop-shaped thingy) running full blast with guitars off to the side in their cases and all my studio junk up against the silver screen for now. Pretty nice not being bothered (I have a feeling that very few know I'm actually here), and although we have some street noise seeping in, I can work fairly undisturbed. Plus, the leather sofa in from of the desk is nice and squishy, for after lunchtime naps. The Blue Sky Media Desk is packed away and am using a cheapo ESI near05 for monitors for now, so bass response is weak for the time being. A/B'ing everything with headphones just to be sure...

Will be here for 2 more weeks until the new studio is completed, but it's nice up here.

64 Jazzmaster into custom shop Marshall Offset. <3

^WTF, did Santa rear-end you while texting or something? Nice rigz.

That's cool as fuck. I'd never seen such a thing.

How is that amp ? Jazzmaster is bloody lovely too...

It's great - sounds really good and the low power switch means I can turn it up at home without pissing off the neighbours. I can even use it late at night with my attenuater. On full power its surprisingly loud.

Think nick just won the thread, that set up looks sublime

Just wait, I think Finboy will have something to say about that...

Lovely rig though, I always thought those offset Marshall's looked awesome.
